How to make a card layout collapsable?

That's not a feature of a!cardLayout(). You could potentially accomplish a similar effect with a!boxLayout(), though.
Also note: there's nothing keeping you from implementing something like this in a!cardLayout() - manually, for yourself. You could have a Rich Text Icon in your card somewhere which, when clicked, hides all contents of the card (other than a "reopen" icon). That wouldn't be very difficult to do, wouldn't require any unusual workarounds, but isn't a built-in feature.
Yes, we can make a box layout using two card layouts and by clicking on the one card we can hide or show the another card.
box layouts now have built-in collapsibility, so this workaround should no longer be needed, fyi.
Yes you are right Mike but Faraz wanted to know "How to make a card layout collapsable?".
I have a paragraphtext inside that card layout will it hide that too?
Can you use box layout as Mike explained above?
If you build this functionality manually, as I'd suggest if you *absolutely* need a Card Layout instead of a Box Layout, then you can hide or show whatever you want inside your card when collapsed. As I said, you'd just need to do any hiding manually.
Edit: here's a portable example of such a thing:
a!localVariables( local!collapsed: false(), a!cardLayout( contents: { a!richTextDisplayField( labelPosition: "COLLAPSED", align: "RIGHT", value: { a!richTextIcon( icon: "angle-down-bold", showWhen: not(local!collapsed), size: "MEDIUM", linkStyle: "STANDALONE", link: a!dynamicLink( saveInto: a!save(local!collapsed, true()) ) ), a!richTextIcon( icon: "angle-right-bold", showWhen: local!collapsed, size: "MEDIUM", linkStyle: "STANDALONE", link: a!dynamicLink( saveInto: a!save(local!collapsed, false()) ) ) } ), a!sectionLayout( label: "Card Contents", showWhen: not(local!collapsed), contents: { a!paragraphField( value: "paragraph" & char(10) & "text" & char(10) & "goes" & char(10) & "here", readOnly: true() ) } ) } ) )
Exactly.
